The **''PAN''** animation has a more complex behavior.  Traffic accepts a variety of special pantograph action commands.  What is special about this is that all other animations control their own individual elements themselves.   The following pantograph actions each control the pantographs of one individual vehicle, up to four pantographs simultaneously.  The actions in hard brackets are very similar to the modificators for the initial pantograph state and determine the new state of the pantograph.   The main difference is that the actions refer only to the one pantograph and its state and do not apply to any other pantographs, whereas the modifiers control all of the pantographs.   If multiple pantograph modifiers are attached to a vehicle, a hierarchical system determines the validity. The modifiers assigned to the individual vehicle have precedence over the general modifiers, which apply to the entire train. When multiple pantograph actions apply to a single vehicle, each controls a subset of the pantographs.  In every case, each action in the sequence is run after the other. 

The following action names act on the animations named **''PAN''** - on pantographs. You should define the pantographs in the following sequence in order these actions function correctly:

- outer left 

- outer right

- inner left

- inner right

(of course, when there are less pantographs, then 4, you use only a part of this).

The following actions control the pantographs:

|**''PDO, PNO, PN''**  |All pantographs down|
|**''PLU, P1U''**  |Left pantograph up|
|**''PLD, P1D''**  |Left pantograph down|
|**''PRU, P2U''**  |Right pantograph up|
|**''PRD, P2D''**  |Right pantograph down|
|**''PMU, P3U''**  |Third (usually the inner or inner left) pantograph up|
|**''PMD, P3D''**  |Third (usually the inner or inner left) pantograph down|
|**''P4U''**  |Fourth (inner right) pantograph up|
|**''P4D''**  |Fourth (inner right) pantograph down|
|**''PDU, P12U, PU''**  |First and second (for most locomotives this means all) pantographs up|
|**''PDD, P12D, PD''**  |First and second (for most locomotives this means all) pantographs down|
|**''PFU''**  |Front pantograph up (depends on the actual or next travel direction)|
|**''PFD''**  |Front pantograph down (depends on the actual or next travel direction)|
|**''PBU''**  |Rear pantograph up (depends on the actual or next travel direction)|
|**''PBD''**  |Rear pantograph down (depends on the actual or next travel direction)|
|**''PFIU''**  |Inner front pantograph up (depends on the actual or next travel direction – useful for multi-system locomotives)|
|**''PFID''**  |Inner front pantograph down (depends on the actual or next travel direction – useful for multi-system locomotives)|
|**''PBIU''**  |Inner rear pantograph up (depends on the actual or next travel direction – useful for multi-system locomotives)|
|**''PBID''**  |Inner rear pantograph down (depends on the actual or next travel direction – useful for multi-system locomotives)|
|**''PHU''**  |First pantograph of the train up depending on the actual or next travel direction (useful for multiple unit trains) |
|**''PHD''**  |First pantograph of the train down depending on the actual or next travel direction (useful for multiple unit trains)|
|**''PTU''**  |Last pantograph of the train up depending on the actual or next travel direction (useful for multiple unit trains)|
|**''PTD''**  |Last pantograph of the train down depending on the actual or next travel direction (useful for multiple unit trains)|


These are similar to the global modifiers specifying the initial state of the pantographs, but not fully identical!
